What is Bio-CLA + Green Tea?What is CLA?
- CLA is short for Conjugated Linoleic Acid.
- CLA is the most abundant polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) found in human tissues.
- Important component of cell membranes and for normal immune function.
- Naturally found in red meat. When taken in a supplement you can get the benefits of CLA without the saturated fat and hormones found in red meat, which research has recently associated with breast cancer.
What is Green Tea?
All teas (green, black, and oolong) are derived from the same plant, Camellia sinensis. The difference is in how the plucked leaves are prepared. Green tea, unlike black and oolong tea, is not fermented, so the active constituents remain unaltered in the herb.
- Green tea contains volatile oils, vitamins, minerals, and caffeine.
- The primary constituents of interest are the polyphenols, particularly the catechin called epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG).
- The polyphenols are believed to be responsible for green teas roles in promoting good health
